Greg Howe live in Bangalore on November 13

Kingfisher Premium presents Guitar Gods India Tour in association with Romanov Red Energy Drink featuring guitar legend Greg Howe, who along with band mates Jude Gold (guitar), Kevin Vecchione (bass) and Gianluca Palmieri (drums) is all set to rock Bengaluru on November 13th at the UB City Amphitheater, Vittal Mallya Road. The Bangalore event marks the culmination of a series of sold out performances in Chennai, Pune and Mumbai.

Greg is very excited about the about the way the India tour has shaped up and was pleasantly surprised to find that not only does he have an avid audience, but loyal fans who have actively followed his career over the years. He is very excited about India and his experiences here especially his first taste of spicy Fish Curry and Naan.

The event has been organized by Orange Tree Entertainment, a Pune based company that plans to bring artists like Greg to India more frequently. Orange Tree aims to introduce niche musical legends to India and Indian youngsters to as many different styles of music, while giving both a unique an opportunity to interact with each other through educational workshops.

Vijay Xavier, chief operations officer of Orange Tree Entertainment is thrilled by the response this event has garnered. “We’d like to thank everyone - our sponsors and partners and especially the young people in the audiences. We couldn’t have done this without you!” he said.

About Greg Howe:Greg Howe started playing the guitar at the age of 10 and by his middle teens, after discovering Van Halen, became obsessed with the guitar. By his late teens he had already begun playing in clubs with his rock band, which featured his brother Al on lead vocals. Over the course of the next few years Greg continued to hone his guitar skills while playing and performing a repertoire of mostly cover tunes for audiences in clubs throughout the North East with his rock band. Greg’s second solo album (1993's "Introspection") set the tone for what would eventually become a series of eight fresh forays in to the mosaic of fusion, rock, funk, blues, and jazz.

With each subsequent album Howe has made bolder and more satisfying strides into fusion music. Greg recently released his latest album in 2008 entitled “Sound Proof”, which has been arguably reviewed as one of Howe’s best albums ever while his self-entitled album “Greg Howe” was just recently named #10 in the top ten shred albums of all times by Guitar World Magazine. Greg has also made himself available as sideman for pop superstars. He filled in for guitarist Jennifer Batten in 1996 on Michael Jackson's History tour throughout Europe and Asia and in February 2009 teamed back up with Justin Timberlake to perform at the 51st Grammy’s Award Show. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date - 13th Nov 2010Venue - UB CIty Amphitheater, BangaloreTime - 7:30pm Tickets will be available at the venue.
